cmake: Correctly handle cost data of tests with arbitrary chars in name

ctest automatically optimizes the order of (parallel) test execution based on
historic test case runtime via the COST property (see [0]), which can have a
significant impact on overall test run times. Sadly this feature is broken in
CMake < 4.0.0 for test cases that have spaces in their name (see [1]).

This commit is a backport of f24178f3 (which itself backports the upstream fix).
The patch was adapted slightly to apply cleanly to the older CMake version in
scarthgap. As repeated test runs are expected to mainly take place inside the
SDK, the patch is only applied to 'nativesdk' builds.

+Subject: [PATCH] ctest: Allow arbitrary characters in test names of
+ CTestCostData.txt
+
+This changes the way lines in CTestCostData.txt are parsed to allow for
+spaces in the test name.
+
+It does so by looking for space characters from the end; and once two
+have been found, assumes everything from the beginning up to that
+second-to-last-space is the test name.
+
+Additionally, parsing the file should be much more efficient since there
+is no string or vector heap allocation per line. The std::string used by
+the parse function to convert the int and float should be within most
+standard libraries' small string optimization.
+
+Fixes: #26594
+
+Upstream-Status: Backport [4.0.0, 040da7d83216ace59710407e8ce35d5fd38e1340]
